Retiring the FreeSWITCH Mailing list
by Brian West 07 Feb '23

07 Feb '23

FreeSWITCHers, Most of you already know me, but for anyone that doesn’t - I’m one of the founders of FreeSWITCH, and I’m the primary administrator for the mailing list. This mailing list has served the community well for almost 15 years now. As the mailing list has grown continuously larger and been stretched to the limits of its capabilities, it has been running into bigger issues. Especially in the last year, we’ve seen numerous issues that prevent people from joining and participating – bounces, unintended unsubscribes, spam filtering, and more. We didn’t want to shut down the mailing list without having a replacement set up, and a forum was the obvious choice – the community has been requesting a proper forum for years now. In addition to being more easily accessible and searchable, we hope the forum will simply be a better experience for everyone using it compared to the mailing list. To join the new forum, visit forum.signalwire.community - it uses SSO from your free SignalWire account, which allows us to be more lenient with moderation because we've got an assumed level of trust, and also reduces the overall level of spam in the forums. We've got the forum set so you can view without an account, so check it out with no obligation. If you’d like to receive updates via email, you can set that up in your user preferences on the forum. You can even reply to forum topics via email, though you’ll need to visit the forum to start a new topic (top level post). Also note the digest/summary emails will stop sending if you don’t log into the site periodically: currently you need to log in every 180 days. Not interested in the forum, but still looking for community spaces? You’re welcome to join our Community Slack <https://slack.signalwire.community/>, join the subreddit <https://www.reddit.com/r/freeswitch/>, or attend our Office Hours <https://mailchi.mp/freeswitch.org/office-hours>. If you want to continue using the mailing list until we sunset it, you’re welcome to do so. We’ve disabled new sign ups as of today, and we’ll formally stop supporting it as of March 15, 2023. This should give everyone plenty of time to set up in our other community spaces. Thanks, /b -- Brian West | Co-founder and Developer Email: brian(a)freeswitch.com

Video setup
by Tihomir Culjaga 12 Jan '23

12 Jan '23

hi freeswitch people, im wondering what is the best setup for video calls (not video conference) with video call recording on freeswitch ? What modules do you use, what codecs do you use and what app for recording do you use nowdays? options are for codecs and formats: - mod_vpx: VP8/VP9 (wondering what is the CPU impact when you reach some traffic volumes) - mod_av: H264 (can it do H265 at all?) for recording: - record_session (what format should i put in there ? mp4, webm, raw...) - mod_fsv (i guess this is obsolete .. is it ?)

mod_http_cache in version 1.10.8 is not working
by Gregor Nanger 12 Jan '23

12 Jan '23

Caching files stopped working after upgrade. First file that is in playback is saved as: storage/http_file_cache/00000000000000000000000000000000.wav And after that all files are played as this cache. Basically it doesn't cache files anymore and always pulls this one from cache. This is the log when it is first cached: EXECUTE [depth=0] sofia/external/041600611(a)91.199.161.142 playback( http://wav.files.com/109da642-87ed-4596-8b82-ddefd379c3bb.wav) 2023-01-10 23:59:45.823739 97.05% [DEBUG] mod_httapi.c:2665 caching: url: http://wav.files.com/109da642-87ed-4596-8b82-ddefd379c3bb.wav to C:/Program Files/FreeSWITCH/storage/http_file_cache/00000000000000000000000000000000.wav (344649 bytes) It looks like it doesn't pass file name down to http_cache or it is passed as 00000... I checked source code of this module and there is some md5 functions that hash name. Could this function returns 00000000... as name? We are using FS on windows, but version 1.10.7 works ok. BR, Greg

Interesting. I don't recall a CAPTCHA when I set up my Signalwire account, but that could have changed since then. I recently joined the forum after I logged in to Signalwire, and it didn't require a CAPTCHA. So maybe start by setting up a Signalwire account first, or finding your old account and logging in. But wherever a CAPTCHA is required, people should take care to use one that is as non-discriminatory as possible. I quite like Google's reCAPTCHA. I have implemented this myself on a couple of websites so I can say it is quite easy to do. Older implementations require the user to check a box to say they are not a robot, and this triggers something at the back end to verify whether this is true. But newer implementations now make this assessment completely in the background so the user doesn't have to do anything. Cheers.

HttAPI calling freeswitch api
by Adrian Fretwell 07 Jan '23

07 Jan '23

Hello, I needed to call the "uuid_display" API function from a httapi document. Document shown below, but is there a better way of doing this? I could not work out how else to call the api function. <document type="xml/freeswitch-httapi"> <params/> <work> <execute application="set" data="api_result=${uuid_display(484f819a-4141-4f35-aa91-01c676f4ebb6 'Hello World')}"/> <execute application="sleep" data="2000"/> <hangup/> </work> </document> Many thanks &Kind regards, Adrian Fretwell

Issues with RFC2833 Telephony events SRTP to RTP
by Jonathan Hunter 05 Jan '23

05 Jan '23

HI all, Hope you are well? We are running version 1.10.8 and are testing some call flow scenarios where we transit DTMF over SRTP to RTP using telephony events and are seeing some strange scenarios. One being losing # digit when I can see it be received on the SRTP side, it is not passed out over RTP leg if it is the first digit received in a sequence. Likewise over SRTP we get digit event 8, however Freeswitch sees this as a digit event 15 D and sends that out over RTP. This is also intermittent. to add to the fun! Has anyone experienced this before or have any tips on what might cause it? Many thanks Jon

mod_httapi usage/popular?
by Adrian Fretwell 05 Jan '23

05 Jan '23

Hello, mod_httapi appears to be handy alternative to calling embedded language scripts for ad-hoc dialplan interactions. I can see a lot of potential for this, do many people use it? If you have used it in production would you share any experiences good or bad? Any hints or tips or gotchas to avoid? The reason for me asking this, is that I'm having second thoughts about using Python and I really don't like Lua. Kind regards, Adrian Fretwell

I think we are the only one in the world, but also with MS SQL server it works great.
